   Should veterans be treated as pawns in 'Article 99'?

   • Veterans who were promised lifetime medical care in return for risking their lives in battle are now treated as pawns, under federal policies that penalize the powerless in order to reward the rich. This is an urgent message, but "Article 99" treats it as such a facile story gimmick that the movie feels wrong anyway.

   Will 'Article 99' be the 'mash' of veterans' hospitals?

   • "Article 99," which wants to be the "MASH" of veteran's hospitals, filled me with a great unease as I was watching it. The filmmakers have obviously studied not only "MASH" (the movie) but also such quip-a-minit TV shows as "Hill Street Blues" and "St. Elsewhere," and they have taken those formulas and mixed them up with some social outrage.

   What does Article 99 mean?

   • This is a movie about how shamefully the Veterans of our Armed Services are treated when it comes to medical care.

   Is 'Article 99' a pawn?

Veterans who were promised lifetime medical care in return for risking their lives in battle are now treated as pawns, under federal policies that penalize the powerless in order to reward the rich.

   Is Article 99 a good movie?

   • "Article 99" took a rather comedic approach to the issue, but not so comedic it minimized the matter. It's a commendable movie that sheds light on the plight of so many veterans and the handcuffed medical workers that want to aid them. 1 out of 1 found this helpful. Was this review helpful?
